Title: Dizzy Reed To Play With The Big Ball Stars Saturday At The Key Club Post by: FunkyMonkey on August 13, 2008, 03:48:38 PM From an update with Frankie Banali...
08/13/2008 Frankie Banali is not keeping quiet. In fact, the Quiet Riot drummer is involved in several different projects according to his latest update. Here is what he had to say: Earlier this summer I contributed drum tracks for a session that included Guns N' Roses man on the keys Dizzy Reed. Oddly enough, the tracks also had Alex Grossi on guitar and Chuck Wright on bass which everyone knows were both part of the final Quiet Riot touring lineup. This was a very cool session for me to have been a part of. And no, this had nothing to do with the Hookers & Blow band that Dizzy and Alex are a part of, which I am not a part of... On Saturday, August 16th, I will be playing a set with the Big Ball Stars at the Key Club in Hollywood. It should prove to be a fun set! The lineup for this version of the BBS is scheduled to include Robin McAuley/vocals, Brent Woods/guitar, Phil Soussan/guest bassist, Neil Turbin/guest vocalist, Dizzy Reed/guest keyboards, Chris Holmes/guest guitars, and I will be the guest drummer for the evening. http://www.antimusic.com/news/08/aug/13Frankie_Banali_Not_Keeping_Quiet.shtml http://www.bigballstars.com/tourdates.html Title: Re: Dizzy Reed To Play With The Big Ball Stars Saturday At The Key Club Post by: FunkyMonkey on August 14, 2008, 04:14:13 PM Former ANTHRAX Singer To Perform With GUNS N' ROSES, Ex-W.A.S.P., QUIET RIOT Members - Aug. 14, 2008
